Seaworld’s Summer Nights returns with Shamu Rocks, Sea Lions Tonite and a new musical score for the fireworks

SeaWorld is bringing back its Summer Nights event for 2012. Besides riding their coasters and other rides into the night, there will be special shows and fireworks. SeaWorld’s Summer Nights runs each evening until 10 p.m. from June 23 through Aug. 12, 2012. Here’s what you’ll enjoy:

Shamu Rocks
Rock the night away with Shamu during this whale show with more flash – and certainly more splash – than a rock concert. Shamu Rocks is a high-energy celebration combining awe-inspiring whales with a light show, water fountain display and rock music.

Sea Lions Tonite
Hilarious hijinks ensue in this evening show as the park’s talented sea lions, otters and walrus parody other favorite daytime SeaWorld shows and attractions. And this year, a new spoof based on the park’s newest attraction – TurtleTrek – will keep guests laughing.

Reflections: Fireworks and Fountains Show Finale
SeaWorld is showcased in a whole new light during this celebration of fountains and fireworks. A newly arranged soundtrack features the thrilling and inspirational music of SeaWorld’s most popular shows, including segments of the score from TurtleTrek.

Summer Nights VIP Tour
Experience the highlights of SeaWorld Summer Nights, VIP-style. This six-hour, guided tour includes an opportunity to feed dolphins, front-of-the-line access to our most popular rides, including Manta, and reserved seating at Shamu Rocks and Reflections.
